Folk-Songs, and the Ninety-Five Moons of Jupiter is now live on Bandcamp, Apple Music, and Spotify.
@kylejguitbox and I poured our eclectic and eccentric folk/ambient hearts into this duo recording. Please have a listen to enjoy the loving yet iconoclastic stylistic fusion and freewheeling improvisations. Mike Cassells at the Isabel Bader Center did a tremendous job recording, mixing, and mastering this. @reneedahn painted the brilliant cover art.
Guitars built by @eastmanguitars , electric violin by @zetaviolins , acoustic violin by @schnurrviolins , pedals by many folks, with noteworthy appearances by @empress_effects and @meris.us

I’m very pleased to be joining @muskoxofficial as their live violinist! On January 20th, 2024, Musk Ox will be playing their first concert since 2020 at Carleton University’s Kailash Mital Theatre; this event will serve as the official vinyl release show for the 2021 album Inheritance which we will perform in its entirety.
Local favourite @nick___schofield will be opening the evening - be sure to listen to his new single ‘On Air’ which came out today!
This show has been a long time coming and Musk Ox is beyond grateful for your support over the years. Looking forward to reconnecting with you on January 20th.

Elk Trio’s debut EP, “Live from St. Brigid’s Centre for the Arts,” which immortalizes a very, very special concert for us, is now live on your favourite streaming services. We are immensely grateful to Gareth Auden-Hole for having the whim to capture audio live from the mixing console and for doing an incredible job on the mixing and mastering, to @thewellottawa for being such a superb venue and such gracious hosts, to @_curtisperry for documenting the night with his inimitable photographical virtuosity, and to our friends and fans who continue to support our genre-blending chamber-fusion adventures.
Please go have a listen, if you’d like. Buy it on Bandcamp, if you want more like it. We’re back in the studio in just a few short weeks.

This Friday at the @arthouse.ottawa we will celebrate the release of a… “bootleg” recording from our show last year at St Brigid’s Centre for the Arts. We’ll also be trialing some things for our upcoming studio recording in early April.
See you there? Tix in story.
